According to the 2025 Township Economy Report by 27four Investment Managers, South Africa’s township economy is worth almost R900billion per year, but much of that ends up leaving townships instead of circulating locally. Where does it all go to and what can be done to help small businesses and small retailers compete and to scale-up? Lester Kiewit speaks to Annelene Dippenaar, the Chief Business Officer from Shop2Shop and a panelist on the launch of the Township Economy Report webinar.
